I drove Celicas for a decade at an average of $200 per annum for parts and depreciation. Even lived in one for two months of reliable miles.
Not many people outside of Japan realize that Toyota is the only major auto manufacturer to maintain a fairly non-denominational chapel, or shrine, as a hangout/memorial for people who die in their product. You'd think they'd put it in the manual, maybe near the seat belt section.
The old fisherman's standard engine on the NW coast was the Easthope. In the back of their manual, there were a few selections from the Bible, of interest to sailors on sinking boats, or drifting toward a lee shore. . .
